Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 31.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 15 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 1 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 14 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 11 wickets from 65.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 1.10 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
